I was all pumped to go to the gym before work tomorrow morning for the first time since my surgery. I was getting my stuff ready tonight, found my gym bag, workout pants, socks. Found a left tennis shoe, no right one in sight. Okay, that's cool, so I then found my other pair of tennis shoes, but they are mysteriously missing their laces... Oh yeah, and I can't find a tshirt to wear that fits, and I don't own a sports bra that fits. Was willing to work around the sports bra situation until the new one I ordered arrived, but I don't think I can work around the other stuff :-/

Oh so ready for hump day to come and go tomorrow!

Sometimes you just have to laugh it off as something that wasn't meant for tomorrow...stop and get extra laces!

Don't you have another shoe with laces? I am sure dollar tree or dollar general has them.

No, I don't own any other shoes with laces. I work in an office environment and casual shoes aren't appropriate for work. Outside of work I mostly wear sandals because I live in Texas and it's just too hot for anything else.

Regardless, that wasn't the point of the post. I was just ranting that I had finally gotten the motivation to go, but all these little obstacles were standing in my way.

I will pick up some new laces on my way home from work.

Sometimes, the universe just conspires against you to test your resolve. This is the time to spit in the universe's face :)

(I've had those days...just want to get out and work out and everything and its brother tries to keep me from it.)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
